I thought I'd write a short piece on what I believe to be the best TV shows on Netflix (and why I think so). I've written a lot of pieces about politics, all the division culturally, in society, and one of the things that I've been trying to find in my university is a sense of unity. Unity is a core element that is involved in many films and TV shows, and when characters have a good/witty rapport with one another, that's something that I enjoy watching and is really interesting.

I'm not exactly the type of person who watches shows like Criminal Minds or Stranger Things (I've watched the former very little, and the latter none at all), but they generally seem to be based upon the "Thriller" genre.

I personally watch shows that are more like the newest version of Hawaii Five-0 and NCIS. Both have recurring cast members, and sometimes there are episodes in which different characters go through challenges, either on their own or separately (much like Criminal Minds). The thing that makes these shows stand out the most is that a wide range of topics and concepts for episodes are covered, not just serial killers or people who have strange an/or unusual motives. Both Hawaii Five-0 and NCIS do have some episodes about serial killers, but they also have concepts including international terrorism, drugs, gangs, etc.

Going back to one of the points that I led off with, unity is found in both Hawaii Five-0 and NCIS. Humorous and witty relationships between characters always find themselves into the plots of episodes in both series, as well as the serious moments, where members of each team lean and depend on one another and can lean on their teammates for support during tough times. Both of these types of dialogues seem to make the characters grow closer to one another, and (again) that's something that is really good to see, considering what's going on in our nation at the moment.

As I said in one of my previous articles, The West Wing is also one of those shows that has integrity, and the actors and actresses show their characters' identities incredibly well. Again, it has it's emotional times, as well as it's funny moments, which I find similar to real life.

For those who are into shows that are close enough to real life, but still have moments of comedy in them, I highly recommend these three!
